| | 6 | == What's New == |
| | 7 | |
| | 8 | ncm-spma v2 removes the constraint that requires all architectures for a package to be in the same repository, which often impedes clean mirroring of upstream repositories. |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | == Updating == |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | ncm-spma v2 introduces a new schema which is not backwards compatible, since it's critical for package installation, please read carefully. |
| | 13 | |
| | 14 | ncm-spma-1.8.0 is a transition release that allows an easy update path, this release will be the default version during the second quarter of 2011. |
| | 15 | |
| | 16 | Updating directly from version <1.8 to ≥2.0, without stepping through the transition release, should be avoided. |
| | 17 | |
| | 18 | == Requirements == |
| | 19 | |
| | 20 | aii-ks-1.1.32 or later, only on Quattor servers. |
| | 21 | |
| | 22 | == Early update == |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | If you need to use ncm-spma v2 right away, make sure all nodes are running ncm-spma-1.8 before updating, then you can update (ncm-spma and aii-ks) as any other component following [/wiki/Development/Templates/Components these instructions]. |
| | 25 | |
| | 26 | RPMs can be obtained directly from the [http://lapp.in2p3.fr/Quattor/autobuild/rpm/trunk/current/ autobuild site]. |
| | 27 | |
| | 28 | == Troubleshooting == |
| | 29 | |
| | 30 | If you miss the transition period (second quarter of 2011) and find yourself in a situation where some nodes have tried to update directly (without going through ncm-spma-1.8), a manual installation of the ncm-spma v2 RPM will be needed. This could happen if nodes are kept off-line for extended periods of time or if these instructions are ignored. |
| | 31 | |
| | 32 | After updating to ncm-spma v2, the [http://quattor.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/quattor/trunk/util/checkdeps/checkdeps latest checkdeps] should be used. |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | == Known Problems == |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | v2.0 of the schema breaks CDB's PrepareInstall. |
